unfortunately tfd never replied back to me.
when home tonight, i'll have a look at it and send you a version, which writes out some debug information

Veabers,

you got mail with a new corrected version and some debugging instructions.

let me know if it works.

thx,

Helmut

hi veabers,

the mail i sent to you couldn't be delivered.
can you pm me a mail address?

 

[hwahrmann]

again, your mailer returned the mail to me. didn't accept the attachment.
i've put the latest version in the download section.
grab it from there and give it a try.

 

[Veabers]

I got the latest version from the download section.

It seems to be working fine for me.
I have started and stoped Media Portal several times now without any problems.
I however still odn't have any logs. Guess it doesn't matter though since the problem seems to be fixed.

Than you very much. I will post back here if I come across any problems.

 

[Veabers]

I may have said that too soon.
I rebooted and the problem returned.

I however have found what I think is a fix. I added the Everyone class of users to the security settings for the MediaPortal Folder. Giving full control access to the directory. I then restarted mptray4irtrans and the problem is gone.

I am fine with leaving the permissions this way and have it working, but I don't know why it would fix it.

Hi Veabers,

glad to hear it works.
The only thing i'm doing is writing to the log directory.
nothing else. so this could be the problem.

best regards,

Helmut

Start of MP and MCE2005 at one click

Hi!
I am a newbie to MP but have it running pretty good so far. I was also curious about the green button on my philips MCE IR. Reading this forum I downloaded Mptray4Irtrans and got it running with no problem - well alomost no problem: When I hit the green button MP starts and right afterwards MCE2005. I already deactivated the MCE related services but that did not help. How can I "turn off MCE?"

Hope my question is not too stupid for this forum.

Greetings to all, Michael

Michael,

have a look here
It describes how to edit the IRTRans app.cfg.
You should find some lines inside, dealing with MCE.
Delete this section and it'll work.

rgds,

Helmut

First time I ran mptray4irtrans it worked great. Started MP when I pushed the green button. But since then it never works. There's no logs in the MP dir, and IRtrans shows that the green button is being detected.
